Peggy died peacefully in her sleep on Thursday May 5th at the age of 74. She was preceded in death by the love of her life, Albert, married for 52 years. She was always caring for her sisters, her children, her mother, and then her husband when he was hurt, until the point where she needed to be cared for as dementia slowly stole her memories.

 

She had many friends she kept in touch with from Singer/Eaton where she worked in the factory making car air conditioning parts. She had Peggy’s Cleaning Service where she cleaned houses and a day care center. Peggy worked for San Camillo where she made friends with the priests and brothers, she would go grocery shopping, cleaned their house, and other household tasks. She called them “her boys,” and enjoyed working with them each day until she couldn’t any more.

 

She loved going on vacation with all of her family each summer in Door County over the fourth of July. She enjoyed several trips to Florida and Disney World, along with visiting her old neighbor friends Greg and Mary who moved down there.

 

Daughter of the late Ralph Wiese Sr and Viola Brown. Loving mother to Sherry (Dan) Brahm, and Troy (Nicole) Bacon. Grandmother to Joshua (Martinique) Brahm, Brittany (Nicholas) Fasse, Kaitlyn (Ryan) Miller, and Cole Bacon. Great grandmother to Huxley, Kynlee, Braeden and Molly. Dear sister to Dennis (Betty) Wiese, the late Karen (William) Lawrence, Ralph Jr (Julie) Wiese, Linda (Paul) Weidner, Pam (late Ralph) Seales and Mary (Cory) Zahn. Peggy has many sister in laws, brother in laws, nieces, nephews, cousins and a very dear life-long friend Beverly Paris, along with many other friends for many years.

 

We would like to Thank the Froedtert Geriatric Internal Med Team, Heartland Home Hospice, along with her many aides that were very special and had cared for her during her struggle with dementia.

 

To Roger Tarpley, whoever/wherever you are… Peggy spoke fondly of you in the past year.
